Most of them are really just CV padding to some 1st or 2nd year grad student. If you look into them more, it's usually just as trivial as being the first to publish a paper about using a model that came out 12 months ago on a less common dataset.

It's really more about the grad student's advisor doing them a solid in terms of building their CV than actually adding useful literature to the world.

Honestly I wish my advisor had done that.

My CS program was alright overall, but the ML professor used the same undergrad material for all his classes and I've kind of been left trying to put together functioning knowledge and a career myself.
